The Daintree Rainforest is a World Heritage Listed site and is one of the oldest rainforests in the world.

It is home to some of Australia’s rarest flora and fauna, with some animals and plants that aren’t found anywhere else in the entire world.

Animals
Daintree’s main appeal is its variety of animals roaming the area. With the rainforest holding a huge percentage of the entire country’s animal population. This includes around 30% of Australia’s entire frog population, 65% of butterflies and bats and 18% of birds. Species that are found nowhere else include the Bennett’s and Lumholtz Tree Kangaroos, the Ulysses Butterfly, and the Spotted-tailed Quoll. It is home to a diverse range creature, with roughly over 12,000 different insect species that buzz around the area. Make sure you keep your eyes peeled as there are animals hidden in every crevasse.

Plants
The plants in this rainforest are just as interesting as the animals. The diversity, complexity, and age of the ecosystem’s plant species are one of the greatest in the entire world.

As well, it is home to some of the biggest trees on the planet, with the tallest being a whopping forty-four meters high, which is almost the same as the statue of liberty.
